Question

Accepted Answer

The French Champions Trophy was initially scheduled for Beijing on August 8.

The fixture was intended to be held in Beijing on August 8 as the opening match of the French season. However, the Chinese authorities ultimately called off the event. Qatar then stepped in to host the match.

The game took place at Doha's Stadium 974, a venue that previously hosted matches during the 2022 World Cup held in Qatar. This stadium was not at full capacity for the French Champions Trophy match. Paris Saint-Germain (PSG) secured their 11th French Champions Trophy title in the last 12 seasons with a 1-0 victory over Monaco, with Ousmane Dembele scoring the decisive goal in stoppage time.
